It tells of an interesting dilemma that artists face regarding piracy.  On one hand, it&#8217;s good that their music is being heard by the masses, on the other hand, that success doesn&#8217;t necessarily translate to making more money.  The sad fact is, if the labels that publish these artists&#8217; work don&#8217;t make any money, they&#8217;ll simply stop producing them, then that will be the end of the story.<\/li>\n<li><b>Sandman<\/b> &#8211; Yay!
